FINALLY Found the stupid squeak that's been driving me nuts!

It's the passenger seat...I finally figured out that it disappears when I get people to listen to it because they're in the passenger seat and weight it down...and I thought it was from the back. Sure enough I jerk the seat around...squeaka squeaka squeaka! And it's not the seat belts...so off I go to get that fixed! YAY!!

I know how you feel, dude.....my friends think I'm crazy when I mention how annoying the squeaks are b/c they never hear them. Are you taking it in to the dealer?

Yeah, something in my car is squeaking too whenever i make a turn. Im pretty sure its the drivers seat. Whenever I reposition my a$$ it makes a little squeaking sound. Can that be fixed at the dealer or will they just laugh at me and tell me to deal with it?

Found that one early, I shut the car off and it would squeak as she breathed.

Still have to figure out the one around the coin holder shift plate...

Bring it to the dealer. They have teflon tape they will put around the moonroof opening and it will stop the squeak.

If they laugh at you, spit in their faces. You spent 30,000 on that car. Let them spend 5 minutes on fixing a damn squeek that shouldnt be there. My cousin has had a 328 since 99 and not one sound comes from that interior. This is why i cant wait to get a bimmer, acura is killing me. Just to think that i wanted to wait it out till the next body style came out.

Do they charge for this, or is it covered? I've been noticing the squeaks also.

It is a known issue and they will fix under warrantee at no cost to you. If they don't, find another dealer
